Hi all.
Hope the subject just explains my concern.
Just for better, I add:

-MLO Android, at the top of main window you can find the FIND field.
If you write two words ("say" and "hello"), you will get all the tasks that have in the caption field (i.e. description) the word "say", and all the tasks that have "hello". I do not like. I like the behavoir of MLO Desktop:

-MLO desktop, you can use for this the Ctrl+L field or the Ctrl+F field.
If you write two words ("say" and "hello"), you will get all the tasks that have at the same time in the caption field (i.e. description) the word "say" and "hello". I like it.

Why this difference?


I say hello to all of you!

Hi Roberto,

This is a bug and it will be fixed on Android.

Roberto,

Could you please confirm that the search works as expected in MLO now.

Thanks,
Andrey.

Yes, I confirm: the search works as expected. Thank you very much.

By the way, I discovered what I think it is a bug: if you set a search string on MLO Android and, after the search you do not delete the content of the string field and then exit the MLO, when you open again MLO, it immediately crashes. Ths is repeated one, two, three times, then finally it does not crashes, but then it takes a long time to show the tasks, as it would be remaking a internal indexing of the tasks.

Can you try to simulate this?
